Is there any feedback on the Lado mechanical retract systems in the jet community yet?
A mechanical system seems far more basic, uses fewer components (less chance of failure) and provides a much more scale like operation.
Any feedback on these technologies would be very welcome.
Links for those who need them.

Marc, there was a thread on here a while back....I don't know that anyone had actually left any feedback from firsthand experience. As far as the machanical units using fewer components, there system actually uses quite a bit of electronics to make it works. While it certainly looks more scale, I don't know that I would call it more reliable at this point.
